  3. 10. Material Flow Accounts • 10.1 Work from the MFA Task ForceTask Force Mandate discussion • 10.2 Presentation of the MFA data collected in 2007Helmut Schütz, Wuppertal Institute • 10.3 Country experiences presentation – France • 10.4 MFA – future plans

  4. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Background information:Started about 6 years ago Participation in the last meeting from UK, Sweden, Italy, Finland, Germany, Czech Republic and consultants Karl Schoer (UNSD), Helmut Schütz (Wuppertal), Nina Eisenmenger (IFF) • Accomplished the establishment of a data collection questionnaire and a draft compilation manual for economy-wide material flow accounts (EW-MFA)

  5. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Adjust the current methodology to correspond with the SEEA-MFA manual and the SEEA standard when these are adopted. • Evaluate current country practices and potentially develop recommended methodologies and standard tables for including an industry breakdown in the accounts. In particular: • Consider whether Domestic extraction allocated to extracting branches should be a part of the Questionnaire, to be accompanied by a detailed description of the allocation procedure. • Further elaborate, on the basis of pilot studies and countries experience, on the possible inclusion of tables describing supply and use of primary products and imports

  6. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Potentially develop a common/harmonized methodology for unused flows based on a review of countries' and projects' (like IndiLink, EXIOPOL or GRAM/MOSES) experiences with these flows and of the evaluation of the added value of the results obtained.

  7. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Further explore the relationships between MF aggregates and the monetary aggregates from the core National Accounts and examine indicators (e.g. resource productivity) containing MFA indicators (e.g. DMC, TMC), in close cooperation with National Accounts Units and make recommendations regarding indicators that use MFA data.

  8. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Apply the same evaluation and development approach used for unused flows also for indirect flows.(Potentially develop a common/harmonized methodology for indirect flows based on a review of countries' and projects' (like IndiLink, EXIOPOL or GRAM/MOSES) experiences with these flows and of the evaluation of the added value of the results obtained.)

  9. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Keep track of countries' developments on flows of hazardous waste and chemicals and the related work using Supply, Use and I/O tables and these types of flows.

  10. 10.1 MFA Task Force Updated Mandate • Discussion • Does the Working Group have any comments to the draft mandate that the Task Force has formulated? • Completing the methodological development of EW-MFA is the overall goal plus evaluating if and how countries can implement these types of accounts – Is this the direction the Task Force should take?

  11. 10.2 Presentation of the MFA data collected in 2007 • Helmut Schütz, Wuppertal Institute

  12. 10.3 Country experiences presentation • France

  13. 10.4 MFA – future plans • Evaluate the data reported in 2007 especially in light of the previous estimations made by IFF for Eurostat (2002, 2004) and Wuppertal for DG Environment. Value added of country reporting vs. using existing databases for compiling EW-MFA for countries. • SIF for data collected in 2007 – Fall 2008 • Provide MFA data (DMC) for SDI and SI • Finish the compilation guide for beginners in cooperation with the OECD • Contribute to the international standardization work by UNSD (SEEA-MFA), OECD and UNEP • Task Force work on methodology development
